IT incident update – 28 March 2024

Following the IT outage we suffered yesterday (Wednesday 27 March), the majority of our systems have now been restored overnight.

The Christie Hotline (0161 446 3658) and switchboard (0161 446 3000) are working so patients can contact us as normal in this way.

We will continue to post information on the Trust website and social media channels with any further updates as necessary.

If you are attending for an appointment today, please bring with you information about your treatment, past medical history and medications which will help our staff should any systems still be slow. We apologise for any delays that this incident may cause to your care and treatment.

Clinical fellows in proton beam therapy

Clinical fellows are medical practitioners who pursue advanced training in a specific medical specialism. The clinical fellows in our proton beam therapy centre have a passion for oncology, particularly radiotherapy as a cancer treatment.

Clinical fellows play a vital role in a patient’s journey through proton beam therapy. Their role involves (but is not limited to) meeting patients for the first time at their initial assessment visit, assisting in marking up the treatment area and problem solving or reviewing patients if side effects arise.

Clinical fellows face a steep learning curve during their time in proton beam therapy but get the valued opportunity to learn first-hand from our expert clinicians within the centre. They are at the forefront of research within the department and their pioneering work continuously benefits our patients.
